Piers Plowman

Unknown Author

4.9/5 (12789 ratings)

Description:Penned by an anonymous 14th-century author, this book is a compelling literary and historical text. Seen as the medieval forefather to John Bunyan's 'Pilgrim's Progress', this book uses an allegorical journey to explore themes of social justice, Christian living, and the nature of sin. The vivid depiction of a chaotic world on the brink of a peasant's revolt invites the reader to question the morality of the church, the law, and the nobility of the time. Yet this is no mere diatribe, but a profound meditation on the nature of truth, love, and ultimately, redemption. It blends satire, humor, and philosophical musings, and is notable for its extensive use of alliterative verse, a technique more commonly associated with much earlier Anglo -Saxon and Old English poetry. A fascinating insight into English society and thought in the 14th century, it is still relevant today because of its exploration of universal human themes.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
